| Function | Plays a crucial role in the metabolism of thyroid hormones (TH) and has specific roles in TH activation and inactivation by deiodination (PubMed:12586771, PubMed:11108274, PubMed:10403186, PubMed:18821722). Catalyzes the deiodination of L-thyroxine (T4) to 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3), 3,3',5'-triiodothyronine (rT3) to 3,3'- diiodothyronine (3,3'-T2) and 3',5'-diiodothyronine (3',5'-T2) to 3'- monoiodothyronine (3'-T1) via outer-ring deiodination (ORD) (PubMed:12586771, PubMed:11108274, PubMed:10403186, PubMed:18821722, PubMed:18339710). Catalyzes the phenolic ring deiodinations of 3,3',5'- triiodothyronamine and 3',5'- diiodothyronamine (PubMed:18339710). |
| Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type III membrane protein |
| Tissue Location | Isoform 1 is expressed in the lung, trachea, kidney, heart, skeletal muscle, placenta, fetal brain and several regions of the adult brain (PubMed:11165050, PubMed:8755651). Isoform 2 is expressed in the brain, heart, kidney and trachea (PubMed:11165050) |

Background
DIO2 belongs to the iodothyronine deiodinase family. It activates thyroid hormone by converting the prohormone thyroxine (T4) by outer ring deiodination (ORD) to bioactive 3,3',5-triiodothyronine (T3).

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
